Weekly Weigh In

I stepped on the scale this morning and lost another pound (and this is after half a large pizza last night…..wow, did I just admit that?).  So, I’ve now lost a total of 5 pounds, which translates to 20 sticks of butter.  Yea!  Some progress.

I’ve decided to do the Body-for-LIFE workout plan (weights three times a week and cardio three times a week with one day off from exercising).  We’ll see if I can stick with it.  I’m determined to get in at least 5 days of working out, but would love to work out a sixth day (which would be a Saturday).  There’s just something about working out on the weekends that never sticks with me, which is why I say, “we’ll see if I can stick with it”.

My eating plan will be the Eat Clean diet, which I’ve been doing, but not for every meal.  You can tell if I Eat Clean because I post the recipe here.  When I’m not posting recipes, I’m either making the meal again, eating leftovers of the meal, or not eating clean (which is probably the actual reason).  I would like to hit it hard, but it obviously takes commitment and I’ve never been committed to following a diet through.  I keep telling myself this is a way of life, but then think what way of life doesn’t include French toast smothered with butter and syrup for breakfast, fast food for lunch, and Mexican for dinner.  Ok, so that just proves what I’d prefer to be eating on a daily basis and why I need to lose weight.

So….here’s to another week….
